This medieval bridge, built in the 15th century, consists of a total of five arches. It was commissioned by the bishop of Plasencia, Juan Carvajal. Throughout its history, it has suffered damage and restoration, including the destruction of its central part during the War of Independence. In 1859, a wooden step was added until it was completely restored.
